How I spent my summer.....

I can't believe it's the middle of September!  

Summer has flown by............

and with all my travel and study.....I am amazed I was able to capture some time

for making...........

inspired by the wabi sabi spirit of this countryside....

old trucks left to weather.....tin roofs.....rusty bits....

and of course

crosses 

of all shapes and sizes....

My wares..........

Before I head to Detroit, I thought I'd post some pix of what I've been working on since my arrival to New Mexico...........as I had this little show to get ready for ......I set up a metals studio in the shed of my friend Celeste.......and went to work.........furiously and steadily making......

these.....

earrings....

Using Copper and Sterling Silver with Vitreous Enamel

They are for sale.......

Venue to be decided......

Playing with metal and glass............

It's been the coldest spring I can remember......and staying inside with the heat of the kilns......

I've been playing in the studio............

Adding to my collection........

of these..........










and.....


getting joyfully sidetracked by............

Squiggles...........
